ISBL Asshat of the Week: Miss Jerry Newcombe

This week it goes Jerry Newcombe, of the ironically named
Abiding "Truth" Ministries, formerly known as Coral Ridge Ministries,
a megachurch of megahate.

See, this Friday is the National Day of Silence in which
students across the country vow to take a form of silence to call attention to
the silencing effect of anti-LGBT bullying and harassment in schools. And Jerry
Newcombe has gotten his lady-panties in a twist about it.

"It’s sad to see groups like GLSEN be accepted by the
teacher's establishment and then allow the platform to go into the public
schools and try and indoctrinate children. For example, they have something
called the Day of Silence. Now they chose April 20 of all days to be the Day of
Silence, I looked that up, I was like, 'Isn’t that Adolf Hitler’s birthday?' I
looked it up and sure enough it is Adolf Hitler’s birthday. I don’t think
there’s a link there but how ironic. But they are using this day as a means by
which to promote their lifestyle as if it is a positive thing."

See, he doesn't come out and actually say that because the
two days fall on April 20th that there is a link between Hitler and GLSEN, but
he wantsyouto make that jump. He's assuming that
people are like Jerry Newcombe, so utterly stupid and homophobic as to believe
the two things have anything to do with one another.

And, for the record, Jerry, you delusional fucxkmonkey,
goosestepping, probably closeted gay self-loathing homophobe, the Day of
Silence does not promote being gay, it promotes awareness that gay kids are
being bullied, sometime to death, for being gay, and asks people to use silence
as a weapon against bullying.

I guess the 'god' you pray to doesn't mind kids being bullied, so, for that, little Miss Jerry Newcombe wins this week's ISBL Asshat of the Week Award.
